A Love Story for the Ages: Jazzy and Sam's Wedding at The Kelley Farm


Jazzy and Sam’s wedding at The Kelley Farm in Bonney Lake, WA, was nothing short of magical. The historic Kelley Farm, with its charming barn, lush gardens, and timeless beauty, set the perfect stage for their love story—a tale rooted in friendship, serendipity, and a little help from fate.


The venue itself is steeped in romance. Originally a farmhouse built as a wedding gift in 1907, The Kelley Farm has grown into a premier wedding destination that blends rustic charm with modern elegance. From the string-lit gardens to the grand barn with its soaring ceilings and wooden beams, every inch of this venue radiates warmth and intimacy, making it an idyllic backdrop for Jazzy and Sam’s special day.


The Couple’s Story

Jazzy and Sam’s relationship is a story straight out of a rom-com. Their families were intertwined long before they were—parents who were best friends in middle and high school led to childhood connections between the two. Life took them in different directions, but fate had other plans. After years apart, they reunited over dinner, where sparks flew almost instantly. Sam, ever the romantic, had already envisioned their future together, and his devotion was evident from the start. Their love blossomed despite the distance, with daily FaceTimes and texts keeping them close while Jazzy studied abroad in Italy. Sam’s grand gesture of flying overseas to visit her sealed the deal. On the steps of Italy, they shared their first kiss, setting the tone for a relationship filled with adventure and deep connection.


The Wedding Day

Their wedding day was a reflection of who they are as a couple—elegant, fun, and surrounded by love. Family and friends traveled from across the globe to celebrate alongside them, creating an atmosphere of warmth and togetherness. The day was filled with emotional moments, from tearful speeches to bursts of laughter, all of which I had the privilege to capture through my lens.

Jazzy and Sam exchanged vows in the barn, where sunlight filtered through wooden beams, creating a golden glow that added to the intimate ambiance. Afterward, guests mingled on the tiled patio during cocktail hour, enjoying the picturesque views of the garden.


The reception was a lively affair, blending elegance with outright fun. Touching speeches brought tears to everyone’s eyes, while the dance floor was alive with energy. The evening was capped with unforgettable moments under the string lights of the garden, making it a night to remember for everyone in attendance.
